Installing the add-on is easy. When you open Blender, press the hotkey Ctrl ,
anywhere in the 3D viewport and this will bring up the add-on preferences. Alternatively, you can also use the hotkey F4
which will show the file menu where you can click on the preferences link.
Once in preferences, go to add-ons and click the install button.
This will open up the Blender File View or file browser. Look for the add-on zip file you downloaded from the store then use the Install Add-on button at the lower right area of the window.
As of Blender 4.2, the install button can now be found in the location shown in Figure 2. The add-ons are now in a folder with the requisite files needed for the new extension feature in Blender 4.2. You need to use the install button on the zip folder you downloaded from the store and not on the extracted contents.
If for whatever reason using the extensions feature for installation doesn't work you can try the add-on section.
Use the install button on the zip file you got from the store not the contents.
After installation, look for the addon in the list or find it using the search bar by typing the add-on name then enabling it using the checkbox.
You can find the addon operator in the specials menu in the 3D viewport using the W
hotkey.
This can also work in edit mode.
